Can anyone from Mozilla explain why a Firefox Account is required to use this?

(I don't work for Mozilla) The rumor I've heard on HN over the past few months is that Mozilla eventually intends to sell a paid version of Firefox with a VPN included. I'm suspecting this may involve a Firefox Account in the future.

I would be very happy to pay for a secure browser. I'm really tired of "free" products that we sell our private lives to.

This is part of why I decided to go outside of the norm and made a fresh Outlook account I dont share with anybody or any websites, and paid for storage. Eventually I want to have my email under my domain hosted by Microsoft just because they're not the same mess of Google, and I get all of the Office suite included.

I looked into the hosting domain by Microsoft, but for the non business version they require your domain registrar be godaddy and I'm just not into that. It's kind of a stupid thing they have, why can't they do a dns thing like anyone else, why do they require your domain registar be godaddy?

I know right! I used to have domains.microsoft.com and that gave me 500 free emails for any domain... I'm waiting for them to fix this. I just want my email under NameCheap + Microsoft. GoDaddy was such an awful experience, and then years later they supported SOPA? No thanks.
